Uncle Thor's Hamer Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 On my 2001 Newport Pro the bridge and tailpiece were a mix. I can't remember now the details, but there was something about the studs that was different, perhaps metric vs normal threads? I ended up having to mix/match a bit to get new parts mounted. The spacing of the bridge posts was ever so slightly off, too, which makes the bridge difficult to adjust up/down. It doesn't help you any, I know. Just expect some frustrations with your project!
Disturber Posted March 10, 2018 Author Posted March 10, 2018 They were a mix. Gotoh tailpiece and Schaller bridge. And then a few years bofore they closed the shop they used Tonepros bridges. I would like to know which year they switched to Tonepros. And which size of the bridge I need, schaller or tonepros.
